André Schürrle opened the scoring seven minutes into the second half. Schürrle, having collected a throw-in from Branislav Ivanovic and found Hazard, was allowed to dash, unchecked, into the home half to collect the Belgian's return pass. The home substitute Dan Burn was flummoxed by a clever header across field, which bought the forward space in which to charge, and he finished calmly through Maarten Stekelenburg's legs

Fulham could not quell Hazard's threat and when he was allowed to advance into enemy territory his pass was perfect for Schürrle, having eased off Burn, to score a second across the exposed Stekelenburg

Is Felix Magath offering an opinion on the result as he leaves the pitch at full-time? The Fulham manager was impressed with his team's performance in the opening 45 minutes which bodes well for Fulham's hopes of staying in the Premier League. Final score: Fulham 1-3 Chelsea
